Trapping Predators an Unethical Practice

As an avid outdoors person, I am writing out of deep concern for our wildlife. The Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department’s mission is: “working with others to conserve, protect, and enhance fish, wildlife, plants and their habitats for the continuing benefit of the American people.” Reading this leaves me to question the agency’s ongoing support of trapping, which is inherently indiscriminate, inflicts prolonged suffering and results in the non targeted capture of wildlife each year.
